    Pink tint to stomach

    My girl that I rescued a few weeks back seems to have a pinkish tint to her stomach and some of her skin seems a little loose. Any ideas of what it could be? I've finally gotten her to eat too.

    A picture would help greatly but it sounds like about to shed to me. Pink belly and blue eyes are usually the first signs I notice.

    That's what I thought but I just wanted to be safe.

    Thank you both for the input

    When you say her skin "seems loose," what does that mean, is it flaking off?

    Pink belly is a classic sign that shed is imminent, but if the skin is coming off in pieces your humidity is probably too low.
